Topic: J programming language


  
 J programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The J programming language, developed in the early 1990s by Ken Iverson and Roger Hui, is a synthesis of APL (also by Iverson) and the FP and FL functional programming languages created by John Backus (of FORTRAN, ALGOL, and BNF fame).
J is a non-von Neumann programming language that nevertheless allows the programmer to use von Neumann programming style when desired.
J also supports objects and classes, but these are an artifact of the way things are named, and are not data types in and of themselves.

In modern standard Italian language Italian only foreign or Latin words have J. Until the 19th century, J was used instead of I in diphthongs, as a replacement for final ''-ii'', or in vowels groups (as in ''Savoja''); this rule was quite strict for official writing.
Hebrew language Hebrew also influenced the English J, which in a few cases is used for {{IPA[j]}} in place of the more normal Y. The classic example is Hallelujah which is pronounced the same as Halleluyah.
* In Unicode the majuscule capital J is codepoint U+004A and the minuscule lowercase j is U+006A.

 A management perspective of the "J" programming language - Updated 2004
J, like its precursor APL, is used in business for financial and mathematical modeling, analysis of large databases, engineering, actuarial work, forecasting, operational research studies, and other applications where a knowledgeable person is mostly employing it in their own work or as a teaching and communications tool.
Even the program structure and problem solving approach is difficult to infer from the mass of code needed for most programming languages.
The power of primitive operators in the language itself, the conciseness of presentation, the ease of code distribution in the form of small scripts, the speed of development and testing, the integration into the windows environment, and so on, are all capabilities one looks for in an applications development language.

 Programming language benchmarks
In all programs the indices of the polynomial are kept in a local float vector.
In this, the program only tests the quality of code which accesses local vectors and performs simple arithmetics in loops, and is free from differences in the standard library, operating system calls and, indeed, the presence of any advanced language features.
There are two versions of the program: (1) all computations are done inside a single function body; (2) each polynomial is computed through a call to a function; the vector of the 100 coefficients are kept in a statically dimensioned array inside this function; it is called 500000 times.

 Object-Oriented Software Design and Programming [encyclopedia]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Object-oriented programming is a method of software implementation in which programs are organized as cooperative collections of objects, each of which represents an instance of some class, and whose classes are all members of a hierarchy of classes united via inheritance relationship.
C++ is a general-purpose programming language with a bias towards systems programming, that supports low-level programming in traditional styles, data abstraction, object-oriented programming, and generic programming.
C++ was initially developed from the C programming language by the addition of facilities for object-oriented programming from the SIMULA programming language.

 APL programming language - Wikipedia
The APL (A Programming Language) language was invented in 1962 by Kenneth Iverson while at Harvard University.
APL is an extremely powerful, expressive and concise programming language.
APL is renowned for using a set of non-ASCII symbols that are an extension of traditional arithmetic and algebraic notation and being able to express an air traffic control system in two lines of code.

 The Goedel Programming Language
Gödel is a declarative, general-purpose programming language in the family of logic programming languages.
This means that theoreticians can apply their "pure" theories of program transformation, program analysis, etc., more or less directly to Gödel and do not have to be concerned with complications of extending their theories to cope with the many non-logical aspects of languages such as Prolog.
Gödel is developed by Antony Bowers and John Lloyd at the University of Bristol and Pat Hill at the University of Leeds.

 FP programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
FP (short for Function Programming) is a programming language created by John Backus to support the function-level programming paradigm.
The values that FP programs map into one another comprise a set which is closed under sequence formation:
FP programs are functions f that each map a single value x into another:

 Object-oriented programming language   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Though Simula (1967), a language created for making Computer simulations,was probably the first language to have the primary features of an object-oriented language, Smalltalk is arguably the canonical example, and the one with which much of the theory of object-oriented programming was developed.
Oberon programming language (and its successor Oberon-2) include most of the functionality of Object (computer science)s (Class (computer science)es, Method (computer science)s, Inheritance in object-oriented programming, and reusability) but in a distinctly original, and elegant, form.
Inheritance and Polymorphism in object-oriented programming are usually used to reduce code bloat, but Abstraction in object-oriented programming and Encapsulation in object-oriented programming are used to increase code clarity, quite independent of the other two.

 About APL (A Programming Language)
In most computer programming languages, the challenge might be to solve the puzzle in the fewest lines of code.
In the verbosity of most programming languages, the "forest" gets lost in the proliferation of "trees": The wordiness of the implementation tends to foreground itself vis-à-vis the "play" of exploring computational possibilities.
I used to describe it as a: "fascist programming language", because it is dictatorially rigid.

 Amazon.com: The C Programming Language (2nd Edition): Books: Brian W. Kernighan,Dennis Ritchie,Dennis M. Ritchie   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The book focuses on the language itself - this is no hands-on book (no explanations on how to use this compiler or that debugger, though it is a little biased toward Unix) in a clear, concise, and thorough way covering all of the language and it's standard libraries.
This book is *not* for people who study C as their first programming language (those would be better served with a pair of books - a first course in programming and compiler guide).
If you are already relatively familiar with the concepts of programming, then you will be able to pick this book up and learn C rapidly.

 Microsoft dumps J++ programming language - ZDNet UK News
Software giant Microsoft has dumped its Java programming language deciding to outsource development of its J++ 6 programming application.
The news is hardly surprising given that Microsoft recently endorsed XML (extensible mark-up language) saying that it plans to "program the Web" with the language.
Instead of designing the tool to work on a multitude of platforms, which was one of the main reasons for the creation of Java, Microsoft made J++ specific to Windows environments.
